We will be covering all of the activities of National Signing Day 2014 for USC, Clemson and players around the state all day. Check back here throughout the day for news updates.

Shrine Bowl. OL Donell Stanley (6-5 330) signed with USC this afternoon. Stanley committed to the Gamecocks in October over Clemson, Alabama and North Carolina. "It's closer to home, a quality SEC school, one of the top ones in the conference, and I just like what the coaches bring to the table, especially coach (Shawn) Elliott," Stanley said. "I like the way he coaches. He's an energetic coach and gets his point across. He's going to push you to be the best you can be." Stanley also played in the Army All American Game and is considered one of the top offensive linemen prospects in the country. “His lower body is really good,” Latta coach Kelly Williamson said. “He has really good foot work (and size 22 shoes) and his lower body is really strong. He has exceptionally long arms and big hands. He's the most athletic kid in school.”

USC wrapped up it's day by getting the signed papers back from Dexter Wideman, Chris Lammons and Wesley Green.

DB Darin Smalls (6-0 205) of Summerville has signed with USC. Smalls committed to the Gamecocks in June over Clemson and Florida State. "They play five DBs so my chances of playing would be high," Smalls said. "Their coverages are similar to what we do so I could fit right in." Smalls was having another outstanding season for the Green Wave until he suffered a torn ACL in the third week of the season. As a junior Smalls had 58 tackles with 5 interceptions.

Linebackers JD (6-2 215) and Judah (6-2 215) Davis, the twin sons of Clemson legend Jeff Davis, signed with Clemson today. The brothers are part of a group of signees today who inked 2014 letters of intent and financial aid agreements but who could be transitioned to greyshirts depending on the numbers in the class. LB Jalen Williams and PK Alex Spence are also in that situation. Judah Davis had 86 tackles last season with 16 tackles for loss and 7 sacks. JD had 87 tackles with 8 tackles for loss and 3 sacks.

LB Bryson Allen-Williams (6-3 230) of Ellenwood, GA has signed with USC. Allen-Williams committed to the Gamecocks last April and held firm all the way except for a little flirtation with Georgia the last weekend. Allen-Williams said the fact Steve Spurrier was the first head coach to call him once allowed to moved him to commit when he did. And he liked the idea of playing for defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward. "The best players, he's going to set them up to make plays," Allen-Williams said. "In the spring game the linebackers were set up to make plays all over the place." Allen-Williams added that the atmosphere at Williams-Brice Stadium for home games is also alluring to him. "When I go to Williams-Brice Stadium and I hear 2001 play, something comes over me," he said. "I just felt comfortable there and I love the game atmosphere." Allen-Williams played in the Army All American Game.

DE Taylor Stallworth (6-3 285) of Mobile, AL has signed with USC. Stallworth committed to the Gamecocks last July over offers from Mississippi State, Arkansas, Georgia Tech, Ole Miss, Louisville, NC State, Minnesota and Florida State. Mississippi State made a late run but Stallworth stuck to his pledge. "I'm feeling great about it," Stallworth said of his decision. "I feel this is the place for me the next three or four years." Stallworth said the USC coaches told him he could be defensive end or defensive tackle. "I really like their approach to defense," he said. "They laid down the basics and told me what's best for me."

"He's a great athlete with great feet and real good speed for a guys his size," coach Garry Bishop said. Robinson is a three sport athlete who also plays basketball and is on the track and field team. Bishop played Robinson at defensive end but he can play inside and could also develop into an offensive tackle. "They think he's got a lot of upside because of his athletic ability," Bishop said of the Clemson coaches' view of Robinson. "He's going to get bigger and he's got good speed for his size. I think he can be a player that can be an offensive lineman, a defensive tackle, a defensive end. He plays hard and plays quick." Robinson was a Shrine Bowl selection.

RB CJ Fuller (5-10 190) of Easley has signed with Clemson. He committed to the Tigers in May over North Carolina, NC State and Louisville. "It's a childhood dream fulfilled," Fuller said.

He can also play in the secondary but expects to star out as a running back with the Tigers.

WR Richard Yeargin III (6-4 225) of Fort Lauderdale, FL has signed with Clemson. Yeargin III decommitted from Notre Dame in late November and Clemson moved right to the top of his list.

His brother played at SC State. "I was very excited when they offered me," Yeargin III said. "They are the kind of people you want to be surrounded by. Coach Venables likes the way I run."
